"The Aftermath...Making huge progress!!" Stanton wrote. "Want to thank everyone who has played a part in my recovery process. Your kind messages, thoughts & prayers have meant the world to me. Pushing forward."

The good news is that Stanton's injuries weren't quite as severe as some initially feared. Though, any object hurtling at 88 mph toward someone's face is bound to cause some damage. Stanton required several stitches and suffered dental damage in addition to the obvious swelling.
